I like these very much. Your best so far, I think.
ReplyDeleteabsence makes the heart grow fonder? ha i see it in there but...glad the sentiments were shared and a positive response gained...
ReplyDeleteDave - Thanks, but I thought it's just ordinary.
ReplyDeleteBrian - Malice connotes negativity. But I see without malice as a virtue and it courts a positive response.

As we long
ReplyDeleteThink all is so wrong
When the long does cease
We're as happy as a ummm flock of geese
Pat,
ReplyDeleteAs we jog merrily along
With a little sing-song
or the rhythmic Mr Hatt
Loneliness departs
Hank
